I applied through other source. I interviewed at Salesforce
Interview
No talking, interviewer seemed distant and did not engage in dialog about anything about the technical problem other then saying that it is trivial. No follow up questions, no questions to my experience. All in all it seemed like they had decided to go with some one else before the interview even started
Thank for your sharing your experience with us. The etiquette displayed during your interview is unfortunate, and certainly not representative of Salesforce as a whole. Your feedback is a great teaching moment for our hiring managers and interview teams, so I've asked our tech recruiting leader to share it with that team. Thank you again for your insight. Best of luck with your search!

I applied through college or university. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Salesforce (West Lafayette, IN) in Oct 2015
Interview
I was first contacted by email that I would have a phone interview. In the phone interview they asked me simple questions about my computing background as well as what I have done at Purdue University. They then thanked me and told me I would receive another phone interview shortly. I got another email, another similar phone interview, and then they told me about a third phone interview, this time in a group setting. After this I received an offer a few weeks later.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Salesforce
Interview
One phone call interview : general discussion about the position, the team and projects.
One coding challenge : build an application with some specific requirements.
Several interviews in a row with directors and technical team: discussion about personal background, motivation, previous projects. Some logic coding challenges and front end challenges.
